Written with great empathy and Rauf's trademark humour, The Great (Food) Bank Heist is a moving story that gives a child's-eye view of the increasing problem of food poverty. On Thursdays, Nelson, Ashley and Mum head out to the bank. But not just any old bank - the food bank. With its shining tins and packets of food stacked from floor to ceiling, Nelson thinks it's the best kind of bank there is. But there's a thief in town, and the shelves of the food bank are getting emptier each day, leaving people hungrier than ever. For the sake of his family and everyone else's, Nelson needs to make them stop. But can he and his friends really be the ones to catch the bank robber?

El presente libro esta hecho principalmente de anecdotas propias de mis conocidos y de mis amigos por lo que me gustaria remarcar que todas las vivencias relatadas aqui son reales o al menos en su esencia. El proposito del libro que tienes en tus manos es sacar no una sino varias carcajadas al lector contando anecdotas divertidas las cuales se relatan con un mismo grupo de amigos durante la adolescencia y la vida en la universidad. Los estereotipos de amigos aqui manejados son los que la mayoria siempre conocemos, el bufon, el intelectual, el deportista, el artista y el rico, los cuales utilizando sus diferentes habilidades e ingenio logran realizar las mas disparatadas e ingeniosas bromas incluso entre ellos mismos. Algunas bromas pareceran peliculescas o bien algunas otras dificiles de creer pero creanme que todas tienen fondo real. En otras palabras recordaras este libro como un libro muy divertido
